Homework
With each chapter, suggested homework problems will be assigned and posted on eLearning. These problems
will not

Assignments / Case Studies
There will be 2 assignments that will be given to the students and that will be submitted for a grade. The  purpose of each assignment is to enhance your use of spreadsheets and their use in business.

The assessments should be submitted at the beginning of the class on their due date. Details for preparing and submitting the assessments will be posted on eLearning. All Assignments are due by the

 quiz over each chapter
at the end of
the lecture on that chapter. The objectives of the quizzes are to help facilitate your understanding of the topics that will be presented in the teachings.

The exams will be administered in-class during class time and will require the use of a calculator and an 882-E scantron. The exams will be a combination of objective questions and well as problems.
